The terms of the 2022 Notes are governed by an Indenture, dated as of July5, 2017, among SiriusXM, the guarantors named therein and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “2022 Indenture”), and the terms of the 2027 Notes are governed by an Indenture, dated as of July5, 2017, among SiriusXM, the guarantors named therein and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “2027 Indenture” and together with the 2022 Indenture, the “Indentures”). The following summary is not a complete description of all of the terms of the Indentures or the Notes and is qualified in its entirety by the copies of the Indentures which are attached as Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2 and incorporated herein by reference.

Interest and maturity. Interest on the 2022 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on February1 and August1 at a rate of 3.875%per annum, commencing on February1, 2018.

Guarantees. SiriusXM’s wholly owned subsidiaries – Satellite CD Radio LLC, Sirius XM Connected Vehicle Services Inc., Sirius XM Connected Vehicle Services Holdings Inc., XM eMall Inc., XM Radio LLC, XM Investment LLC and XM 1500 Eckington LLC – guarantee, on a senior unsecured basis, SiriusXM’s obligations under the Notes, including the payment of principal and interest. These guarantors also guarantee SiriusXM’s existing senior indebtedness. One or more of SiriusXM’s other subsidiaries may, in the future, be required to guarantee SiriusXM’s existing senior indebtedness, but may not be required to guarantee the Notes except as provided in each of the Indentures. Sirius XM Holdings Inc. does not guarantee the Notes.

Ranking. The Notes are SiriusXM’s general unsecured senior obligations. The Notes and related guarantees rank equally in right of payment with all of SiriusXM’s and the guarantors’ existing and future senior indebtedness and senior in right of payment to all of SiriusXM’s and the guarantors’ future subordinated obligations; the Notes and related guarantees are structurally subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future liabilities (including trade payables) of SiriusXM’s non-guarantor subsidiaries; and the Notes and related guarantees are effectively subordinated to any of SiriusXM’s existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness.

Optional redemption for the 2022 Notes. At any time prior to August1, 2020, SiriusXM may redeem some or all of the 2022 Notes at any time and from time to time at a “make-whole” redemption price set forth in the 2022 Indenture.

In addition, prior to August1, 2020, SiriusXM may, on one or more occasions, redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes with the proceeds of certain equity offerings at a redemption price equal to 103.875% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the date of redemption.

Optional redemption for the 2027 Notes.

Change of control and other restrictive covenants. The Notes are subject to covenants that, among other things, require SiriusXM to make an offer to repurchase each series of Notes at 101% of their principal amount in the event of a change of control and a downgrade in the ratings of the applicable series of Notes, and limit SiriusXM’s ability and the ability of SiriusXM’s subsidiaries to create certain liens; enter into sale/leaseback transactions; and merge or consolidate. In addition, each of the Indentures restricts SiriusXM’s non-guarantor subsidiaries’ ability to create, assume, incur or guarantee additional indebtedness without such non-guarantor subsidiary guaranteeing the applicable series of Notes on a pari passu basis. Sirius XM Holdings Inc. is not subject to these restrictive covenants.

Use of proceeds. SiriusXM intends to use the net proceeds from this offering, together with cash on hand, to redeem all of its 4.25% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “2020 Notes”) and its 5.75% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “2021 Notes”) and to repay a portion of the borrowings outstanding under its senior secured revolving credit facility. Pending application of these amounts as provided above, SiriusXM currently expects to maintain any excess amount as cash on hand.
